Definitions
- the present invention relates generally to Head Mounted Displays, and more particularly, but not exclusively, to optical see-through head-mounted displays with opaqueness control and mutual occlusion capability in which real objects may be occluded by computer-rendered virtual objects situated in front or vice versa.
- ST-HMD See-through Head- Mounted Displays
- optical and video J. Rolland and H. Fuchs, "Optical versus video see-through head mounted displays," In Fundamentals of Wearable Computers and Augmented Reality, pp.113-157, 2001.
- the major drawbacks of the video see-through approach include: degradation of the image quality of the see-through view; image lag due to processing of the incoming video stream; potentially loss of the see-through view due to hardware/software malfunction.
- the optical see-through HMD (OST-HMD) provides a direct view of the real world through a beamsplitter and thus has minimal affects to the view of the real world. It is highly preferred in demanding applications where a user's awareness to the live environment is paramount.
- FIG. 1 shows a comparison illustration of the augmented view seen through a typical OST-HMD (Fig. la) and the augmented view seen through an occlusion capable OST-HMD (OCOST-HMD) system (Fig. lb).
- a virtual car model is superimposed on a solid platform which represents a real object. Without proper occlusion management as shown in Fig.
- An OCOST-HMD system typically comprises of two key sub-systems.
- the first is an eyepiece optics that allows a user to see a magnified image displayed on a microdisplay; and the second is a relay optics that collects and modulates the light from an external scene in the real world, which enables the opaqueness and occlusion control on the external scene when presenting to the viewers.
- the key challenges of creating truly portable and lightweight OCOST- HMD system lies in addressing three cornerstone issues: (1) an optical scheme that allows the integration of the two subsystems without adding significant weight and volume to the system.
- This invention concerns an optical see-through head mounted display (OST-HMD) device with opaqueness control and mutual occlusion capability.
- the display system typically comprises of a virtual view path for viewing a displayed virtual image and a see-through path for viewing an external scene in the real world.
- the virtual view path includes a miniature image display unit for supplying virtual image content and an eyepiece through which a user views a magnified virtual image.
- the see-through path comprises of an objective optics to directly capture the light from the external scene and form at least one intermediate image, a spatial light modular (SLM) placed at or near an intermediate image plane in the see-through path to control and modulate the opaqueness of the see-through view, and an eyepiece optics through which the modulated see-through view is seen by the viewer.
- the objective optics and eyepiece together act as a relay optics for passing the light from the real world to viewer's eye.
- the see-through path is folded into two layers through several reflective surfaces, a front layer accepting the incoming light from an external scene and a back layer coupling the light captured by the front layer into a viewer's eye.
- the see-through path is merged with the virtual image path by a beamsplitter so that the same the eyepiece is shared by both paths for viewing displayed virtual content and the modulated see-through image.
- the microdisplay and the SLM are optically conjugate to each other through the beamsplitter, which makes the pixel level occlusion manipulation possible.
- the eyepiece, the objective optics, or both may be rotationally symmetric lenses or non-rotationally symmetric freeform optics.
- the present invention may utilize freeform optical technology in eyepiece optics, objective optics or both to achieve a compact and lightweight OCOST-HMD design.
- the reflective surfaces for folding the optical paths may be planar mirrors, spherical, aspherical, or freeform surfaces with optical power.
- some of the reflective surfaces may utilize freeform optical technology.
- Some of the reflective surfaces may also be strategically designed to be an integral part of the eyepiece or objective optics where the reflective surfaces not only facilitate the folding of the optical path for achieving compact display design but also contribute optical power and correct optical aberrations.
- the present invention may use a one-reflection or multi-reflection freeform prism as an eyepiece or objective optics where the prism is a single optical element comprises of refractive surfaces and one or more than one reflective surfaces for folding the optical path and correcting aberrations.
- the objective optics in the see- through path forms at least one accessible intermediate image, near which an SLM is placed to provide opaqueness control and see-through modulation.
- either a reflection-type SLM or a transmission-type SLM may be used for modulating the see-through view for occlusion control.
- a longer back focal distance for the objective optics is required for a reflection-type SLM than a transmission-type SLM.
- a reflection-type SLM may have the advantage of higher light efficiency than a transmission-type SLM.
- the see-through path may form an odd or even number of intermediate images.
- an optical method is provided to invert and/or revert the see-through view in the see- through path.
- examples of the possible methods include, but not limited to, inserting an additional reflection or reflections, utilizing a roof mirror surface, or inserting an erection prism or lens.
- no image erection element is needed if there is no parity change in the see-through view.
- multiple-reflection freeform prism structure (typical more than 2) may be utilized as eyepiece or objective optics, or both, which allow folding the see-through optical path inside the objective and/or eyepiece prism multiple times and form intermediate image(s) inside the prisms which eliminates the necessity of using an erection roof reflective surface.
- the potential advantage of eliminating the erection prism is that the approach may lead to a more compact design.
